# Apple’s Genmoji Arrives in Brazil with a Distinctive Spin: An Alien Homage in Varginha
As Apple addresses the rising debates linked to its new **Apple Intelligence** platform, the tech behemoth is recalibrating its global marketing tactics. In the United States, Apple has significantly reduced its promotion of **Genmoji**, swapping AI-centered advertisements in New York City for campaigns showcasing the **iPhone 16 Pro’s** camera features. On its website, Apple has relaxed its phrasing, now indicating that its devices are merely “Designed for” Apple Intelligence, instead of spotlighting AI functionalities directly.
However, while the U.S. takes a step back, Brazil is treated to a far more vivid and localized marketing approach — and it’s quite extraordinary.
## A Genmoji Drawing Inspiration from Varginha’s Notorious Alien
In the quaint Brazilian town of **Varginha**, situated in the Minas Gerais countryside, Apple has unveiled a unique billboard displaying a tailored **Genmoji**. The catchy phrase reads: *”Você imagina. O Genmoji cria.”* — translating to *”You envision it. Genmoji brings it to life.”*
This Genmoji is a whimsical homage to the locality’s most renowned tale: a supposed alien encounter from 1996. That year, three citizens reported sighting a peculiar being with red eyes, generating global media buzz and transforming Varginha into a favored destination for UFO fans and meme creators.
Although many Brazilians approach the tale with doubt, the community takes pride in its extraterrestrial notoriety — featuring alien-themed parks and statues. Apple’s choice to situate the billboard close to a park that celebrates the sighting cleverly connects its advanced technology to Varginha’s charming narrative.
## What’s Special about Varginha?
As per **Apple Brazil**, while Genmoji is being advertised worldwide, Varginha is the sole location to receive a specialized avatar that pays tribute to local folklore. The campaign also highlights the recent enhancement of **Apple Intelligence** features to cater to **Brazilian Portuguese**, making resources like Genmoji more accessible for Brazilian users.
This strategy underscores Apple’s broader initiative to tailor its marketing to resonate more profoundly with local cultures — an astute maneuver in a nation celebrated for its enthusiastic embrace of technology and affinity for storytelling.
## What is Genmoji?
**Genmoji** is among several functionalities within the **Apple Intelligence** collection. It enables users to generate custom emojis based on text prompts, merging creativity with AI-driven image creation. Other features within this suite include **Writing Tools**, **Summarize**, **ChatGPT integration**, **Image Playground**, and beyond.
In spite of the concerns surrounding AI ethics and data security, Apple’s lighthearted strategy in Varginha demonstrates that the company is still discovering methods to engage with its audience — sometimes by incorporating a touch of intergalactic amusement.
